Mistral Hotel  

Mistral Hotel is a true gem! The breakfasts are amazing - I would go so far as to say it's the best hotel breakfast ( and especially best home made croissant ) I have ever had. The staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful and genuine in all their interactions. The standard room was a good size and the location great - it is removed from the port and hence quiet yet only a 5 minute walk away from the port's restaurants et al.

The only minor thing I would change would be to have wireless also available in the rooms. It is freely available in the lounge/lobby area and garden, which does make for a relaxing environment.

The Island of Hydra is picture perfect. Is just what a Greek island should be like. No cars just donkeys and lots of walking tracks. Historic old buildings, colourful fishing boats, great places to eat and best of all friendly people. We visited some of the more famous Greek islands during our holiday and nothing came close to being as nice as Hydra.

Although the room was supposed to be 3 star it was better than many 4 star rooms we have stayed in although the batroom was a bit on the small side.. Spotlessly clean, Aircon, heater, TV, telephone, frig, safe, hot shower, great bed, comfortable pillows, garden and sea views and super friendly staff. And of course the breakfast was great, with home made fresh bread and jams plus eveything else you could want and it was included in the room rate.

Would recommend to anyone. Yummy breakfast...always special gourmet treats added every morning. It was a pleasure to stay at the Mistral.

This is a delightful hotel in a convenient part of the town with many local tavernas and restaurants and an easy walk to the waterfront. It is maintained to a high standard and has a very relaxed atmosphere. The breakfasts in the front courtyard garden are exceptional. All produced and cooked at the hotel by Theo (who runs the hotel with Jenny), they set us up for most of the day. Apart from the high standard s mentioned we cannot praise Jenny too much for how she handled the problems we encountered as a result of the ferry strike. She efficently arranged taxis for our trip from Spetses to Hydra and a couple of days later to Athens airport. We certainly intend to return.

The Mistral Hotel on Hydra is reached through cobbled streets only 5 mins from the harbour. It is a boutique hotel making one feel one is visiting friends. Wonderful thoughtful and atmospheric touches. The highlight however is the breakfast. Different every day.So many delights were placed infont of us each morning I resorted to writing each item down so I could recite them to family on our return. The owner/chef cooks his own coissants on a Monday( plus fruit,jelly,cake,cereal,toms olives and feta and a creme caramel! Need I say more!!! Perhaps - we will return

Good service and flexibility. Original breakfasts.

Good breakfast variety

Uninspiring rooms, hard beds

Charming hotel in delightful location, wonderful staff.

Only electrical plug for hair dryer was not near any mirror. Could not see what I was doing when I dried my hair.

The bathroom wasn't very updated, was old and not super clean.

We felt the cost of the room was excessive. The room was over priced compared to other hotels in the area. Our friends stayed near by and had basically the same room and much friendlier staff and paid 100 euro, where we paid 150.

This family run hotel has been a geat choice for staying on the Island of Hydra. The establishment is beautiful in local style, the garden maintained with much love for detail, the breakfast prepared by the owner Teo himself always aimed to surprise you with sweet and savory delicacies. Jenny, his wife made sure you never missed anything and was always at hand with practical advise. The staff was very nice, too. Would come back anytime.

Everything! But if I really need to choose I would say breakfast, the room, and the hotel staff

It was a wonderful hotel, and the staff and food was great. For Breakfast they kept bringing out wonderful choices I would call it a full Brunch which was included in the price of the room.

Three of us stayed in a room, and the third bed which was sort of a day couch was not comfortable. It was assumed that the child with us would sleep there but an adult did.
